- The University of Arizona was awarded a $325,127 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to investigate climate variability in the Indian Ocean during the warm Pliocene period. The researchers will analyze marine sediment cores to determine short-term temperature fluctuations in the tropical and subtropical Indian Ocean around 3 million years ago. This data will be combined with climate modeling to understand how a warmer Indian Ocean may have...

The grant was awarded on August 1, 2021 under the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA #47.050) and will be completed by July 31, 2024. Through this funding, researchers at the University of Arizona will work to...
- The University of Arizona was awarded a $280,721 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences on September 1, 2021. The grant is funded through the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA #47.050), which supports basic research in the atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences to strengthen the national scientific enterprise. Under this two-year award, the University will unravel southern hemisphere westerly wind variability through the last ~150,000 years using Tasman Sea...
- The University of Arizona was awarded a three-year, $380,380 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050). The grant will support collaborative research to experimentally constrain the solidification time scales and fragmentation of submarine lava flows. The Geosciences program aims to strengthen the national scientific enterprise through expanded fundamental knowledge and understanding of the integrated...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will support a collaborative research project to trace Pacific Ocean circulation and ventilation during the warm Pliocene epoch. The $387,909 award, made on August 15, 2024, will fund the generation of paleoceanographic records to test models suggesting a strong overturning circulation in the North Pacific during this period. The research will examine redox, temperature, and productivity proxies in...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $192,386 Project Grant through its Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of Arizona for a 3-year collaborative research project to reconstruct tropical rainfall patterns over the last 200 years. The project aims to use stable oxygen isotopes measured in tree ring cellulose from sites across Central and South America to study variations in the position and width of the Intertropical Convergence Zone and understand how these changes...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences awarded $335,145 under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050) to the University of Oklahoma for collaborative research on coral proxy and climate model comparison to understand climate variability in the Intra-Americas Sea region. This three-year project grant, awarded July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2024, will support research services focusing on climatology and biogeochemistry through analysis of coral...
- The University of Arizona was awarded a two-year, $143,148 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation to support the COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: OPENDENDRO - ADVANCED OPEN-SOURCE TOOLS FOR PALEOENVIRONMENTAL RECONSTRUCTION project. The grant was awarded on June 1, 2021 under the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which aims to expand fundamental knowledge and understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. Through this...
The University of Arizona received a three-year, $639,466 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Atmospheric and Geospace Sciences under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050). The grant will support research to develop a millennial-length history of climate variability in the northeast Pacific Ocean region using paleoclimate proxies from growth increments in the marine bivalve Pacific geoduck and tree-ring chronologies. The research aims to reconstruct northeast Pacific sea-surface temperatures and assess relationships between the extratropical and tropical Pacific regions by integrating coral records. The paleoclimate reconstructions may provide benchmarks for comparison among paleoclimate data, modern observations, and model datasets of hemispheric climate variability at interannual to centennial timescales. The grant also supports doctoral student training and the development of exhibits and educational outreach materials related to quantitative paleoclimate techniques.
